New VMR3G Handheld Counter IED Detectors

New VMR3G Handheld Counter IED Detectors

Cobham Antenna Systems is a world leader in ground penetrating radar, having supplied over 5000 systems for detection of Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs).

Marlow, UK: Cobham Antenna
Systems is a world leader in ground penetrating radar, having
supplied over 5000 systems for detection of Improvised Explosive
Devices (IEDs).

The legacy of asymmetric
warfare and landmines is an increasing issue worldwide. IEDs
continue to kill and maim indiscriminately, restricting freedom of
manoeuvre of military, peacekeepers and civilians alike. Cobham has
developed a range of handheld and vehicle mounted sensors to combat
these threats. Minehound is a market leading dual sensor detector,
developed and manufactured in partnership with Vallon GmbH, which
plays a central role in Counter IED operations worldwide. Cobham
products provide an effective means for rapid minefield breaching
by discriminating between mines and fragments, allowing safe routes
to be cleared, including detection of non-metallic improvised
threats.

In partnership with Vallon GmbH, Cobham is pleased to introduce
the new VMR3G detector. This new variant of the Minehound dual
sensor detector retains all of the key features which has made it
the detector of choice for Specialist Search and All-Arms users
alike, but now incorporates a new graphical user display integrated
into the handle of the detector. This lowers the training burden
and makes it possible to rapidly reconfigure the detector parameter
set up to optimise performance using the intuitive menu systems.
This is increasingly important for teams deploying to support
operations virtually anywhere around the world. The Minehound VMR3G
allows a number of specific configurations to be stored and
recalled, so that optimum parameters can be selected.

At the same time, Cobham continues to innovate and now offers a
range of handheld and modular vehicle/robot mounted sensors,
including a new handheld system optimised for detection of IED
interconnects, which offers unparalleled rates of advance and ease
of use. Visit the Cobham stand at DSEi to find out more.
